Re: [bv-dev] Priority list

For your info, here is my ordered list ## Must have - BVAL-241 Method level validation - BVAL-238 Support for container injection in ConstraintValidator - BVAL-226 Make clear whether the static or the runtime type should be considered when creating property paths in case of cascaded validations - BVAL-221 The constraint violation builder cannot put constraint on a top level map key - BVAL-210 Make sure JTA / Java EE plays well with Bean Validation + JPA when exceptions occurs (at least raise the concern upstairs ;) ) - BVAL-208 Support groups translation when cascading operations (hosted on @Valid or not) ## Should have - BVAL-220 Offer stereotypes to skip validation on empty or null - BVAL-240 Revisit cross-field validation - BVAL-225 Propose ability to provide default resource bundles (for a constraint definition provider) - BVAL-219 Consider interpolating the value in error messages - BVAL-223 Add formatter syntax for interpolated messages - BVAL-216 Work with the JAXB EG to have a nice Bean Validation integration - BVAL-214 Ability to validate an object and a list of changes - BVAL-199 Offer helper classes to build ConstraintViolationExceptions (and potentially raise them) - BVAL-198 Simplify creation of ConstraintViolationExceptions - BVAL-192 Add 'exclusive' boolean attribute to @DecimalMin/@DecimalMax constraints - BVAL-230 Add support for validating CharSequence types instead of just Strings - BVAL-217 Seperate the notion of message resolver vs message interpolator - BVAL-249 Add unwrap method to ConstraintValidatorContext for provider extension ## Nice to have - BVAL-235 Support parameterized payload attributes (additional string param on @Payload) - BVAL-233 provide access to contextual info during message interpolation - BVAL-229 Offer a programmatic API to declare constraints on a domain model - BVAL-222 Add a ALL group to validate all groups instead of DEFAULT or the selected ones - BVAL-215 Make composition more flexible (OR support) - BVAL-213 Convert persistence storage exception into Bean Validation exceptions - BVAL-202 Apply constraints on the elements of an iterator - BVAL-191 Introduce a addEntityNode() method to the fluent node builder API - BVAL-211 Consider making javax.validation.ValidatorContext a self-referential generic type - BVAL-237 Expose validated bean via ConstraintValidatorContext ## Next revision - ## Discuss with JPA's expert group - BVAL-234 Ignore @NotNull on JPA's @GeneratedValue properties for pre-persist operations On 26 sept. 2011, at 22:35, Gunnar Morling wrote:
